The Police Service Commission (PSC), in partnership with the Nigeria Police Force (NPF), has scheduled April 28 to 30, 2026, for the written examination for applicants seeking recruitment as Police Constables under both the General Duty and Specialist categories.
The examination will be conducted at designated centres across the 36 states of the federation and the Federal Capital Territory.
According to the Commission, only candidates who successfully passed the physical and credentials screening stage are eligible to participate in the examination.
Qualified applicants have been directed to visit the recruitment portal at www.npfapplication.psc.gov.ng� from Friday, April 24, 2026, to print their Examination Invitation Card, which contains the date, time, and venue of their test.
Candidates are expected to come to the examination venue with the following items: a pen, National Identification Number (NIN) slip issued by the National Identity Management Commission with a clear photograph, and a printed Examination Invitation Card.
Applicants have also been instructed to appear in white shorts, white T-shirt, and white canvas shoes.
The Police Service Commission emphasized that the recruitment process is completely free and cautioned applicants against falling victim to fraudsters or engaging in any form of job racketeering or financial inducement.
It warned that anyone found involved in recruitment scams would face the full weight of the law.
